I am an extreme n00b here in PHP. just started learning PHP. Can't
start MySQL. The command-prompt says:
/Can't connect to MySQL server on 'localhost./
'telnet localhost 10061' gives:
/Connecting to localhost...Could not open connection to the host, on
port 10061: Connect failed./
But 'services.msc' shows MySQL is running.
I am a WinXP user. Running Apche 2.2/PHP5.2/MySQL4.1
Help much appreciated.
regards and thanks
